I'm surprised that google can't manage it, they have proper test engineers. But automated testing is a discipline that very few learn to do well. Even most unit test you see out in the wild are absolutely woeful. I've got a long list of horror stories about testing if you'd like? I used to believe that devs should write the tests, but now I'm not so sure, all to often they just produce more technical debt and fail at improving quality. The industry considers knowing the api of a test framework as an experience automated tester.
